Article by Patrick Lawrence Gilligan: Cash Asmussen is one of the great European jockeys of the past half-century. The 1979 Eclipse Award winner as champion U.S. apprentice went on to win nearly 100 G1 races in the 80s and 90s, including 54 in France, where he was based, ten in Britain and seven in Ireland, plus a Japan Cup and a Breeders’ Cup Mile (Spinning World, 1997). He was French champion four times, and rode great horses such as Suave Dancer (to win the Arc, Prix du Jockey Club and Irish Champion Stakes) and Montjeu (Prix du Jockey Club and Irish Derby).  Yet there are three victories that mean more to him than all of those.  Two were low-level events of huge personal significance, and we’ll come to those later. But the other was right out of the top drawer, as Asmussen, whose brother Steve is currently TRC’s 11th-ranked trainer in the world, explained to Patrick Lawence Gilligan.
